Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archives-Salt: d165a83f-9036-4fbd-9eec-996df475afcf X-Archives-Hash: 36ad58be98bd3ee314f3ae60f35ffac6 Hi, I recently got DSL and youtube is growing on me. LOL I been trying to find a really good hard drive that is around 400 to 500Gb and pretty fast. It has to be a IDE drive, you know, the big wide cables. I don't have SATA on this rig. I have a Maxtor that I like and is pretty fast but it appears they are a little hard to find nowadays. In matter of importance: size, price, speed. Newegg is great but will consider others as well. Thanks for any pointers. Open to ideas. Dale :-) :-)
